the debates to take place in the Chamber of
Deputies
The production at the trial yesterday of

ties animated groups stood in the lobby dis
cussing the incident. In the Chamber

closure made yesterday, there should be any
delay in reassuring the public mind, which
had received a severe shock. Ii being de-

| ernment for information about the actions
| of M. Wilson.
THE GOVERNMENT DENIES RESPONSIBILITY.
NJ. Mazean, Minister of Justice. replied
that The government declined to accept any
responsibility for the doings of NJ Wilson.
NJ. Piou moved that the government order
an immediate inquiry into the allegations
against M. Wilson An adjournment Of
the inquiry until the close of the Caffarel
trial, he said, would not suffice. The Cham
ber must insist upon an immediate inquiry
into the whole OF the facts disclosed at the
trial.

dePlorable matters which had been made
public the government had done its duty
from the outset, and was now
prepared to direct the opening
of new inquiry in order to
ascertain the truth Of the disclosures made
at the Caffarel trial and assure respect Of
the law from all persons without distinc-
ton. The government, he said, accepted
M. Pious motion and he trusted nobody
would misapprehend the feelings which
actuated it in so doing.
M. Jolibois thought that acceptance of
NJ. Piou's motion should signify that the
government would direct a suspension
of the present trial in order to obtain COM
pittS us OWL u.

! met had decided to call meeting and on it's
own responsibility, and asked the Chamber

approved the suggestion.

claims having over handled documents in
! connection with the decorations scandal
NJ. Gragnon publishes a note, refuting the
